In this paper we give a necessary condition for structural identifiability of uncontrolled autonomous systems. This condition only turns on the identifiability of the right-hand side of the nonlinear differential system. We prove that this necessary condition becomes sufficient when the state is one-dimensional. To the best of our knowledge, the theoretical results obtained in this paper are new although the proofs are trivial. But they give an easy to check condition as it is shown by the study of some typical examples, in which we do much less computation than the involved litterature to prove identifiability properties.Index Terms-Nonlinear autonomous system, power series expansion, structural identifiability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
